Car Loan update

We're aiming to pay our car loan off by the end of this year. Including minimum repayments, we've been trying to put $1000 a month onto the loan. The past couple of months went well for us and we were able to meet our goal, but unfortunately we had a temporary loss of income throughout May, so therefore no extra repayments were made. As of 1st June, we're just under $13400. I'm hoping we get a decent tax return and are able to start putting extra on the loan, so we can get it under the $10k mark within the next few months.

  3. All's well that ends well, guys! If you can, take that as a challenge to be more financially-disciplined. In time, you will be able to pay off your car loan. What’s better is that, once you learn to be financially-discipline, you will be able to be better focused on reaching your financial goals and spending lower than your earnings.

  4. Good luck saving up! When we were paying for our car loan, what we did was we always tried to allocate a small portion of our income for our ‘emergency car loan fund’, which is separate from our monthly car loan payments. That way, when we hit a rough spot with our finances, we could still make the extra payments without losing a stride. The tax return is definitely a big help! So have you finished paying it off already?
